It was a wonderful journey, I really had the honor of doing this girl many times, this time even close to the Monster Zkittlez with which they generated the Runtz who was also in the grow. Super modern family situation, I wanted to try to figure out which one I liked best, and I still haven't been able to. at least I'm still tasting Runtz's first flowers and it's heavenly but the freshly picked Gelato and the upcoming Zkittlez are scary just to see them. Super resin, it really looks fake, I also have some macro photos that will make you cry. The resin is everywhere the trichomes are even in the largest leaves the scent is of the garden of eden. wow. Show. Really nice. It was freshly cleaned I want to try to do the resin the first time and then I have freshly cleaned and hung the whole girl upside down under the crop data next week when I clean and can give the detail. Gorgeous. Before being collected, she did two music therapy days, one of which in the dark with frequencies for plants and together we listened: 1 - Paolo Conte - "Gelato" al Limon 2 - Raekwon - Ice Cream to stay on the "Geato" theme and then all the M83 discography to be collected with the very famous Outro of Interstellar really seems to pass to a better life listening to that stuff. Top of the top

Super Impressed with Dutch Passion Genetics....This lady is an absolute beast, as soon as I open the tent the smell of blueberry smacks me in the face....Super Excited to smoke this pig, and super impressed with my first grow by Dutch Passion...I will absolutely be trying this strain again, as well as some other Pheno's from DP.

Rückblickend war zwei mal düngen mit 100% ein wenig zu viel. Die Blattspitzen waren hier und da etwas mitgenommen. Es wird wohl in Zukunft auf zwei mal die Woche mit 75% hinauslaufen und mal gucken ob die Ladys das besser verkraften. Das erste PH-Messgerät was den Wert nicht korrekt angezeigt hat war letztendlich nicht die große Hilfe. Das passiert in Zukunft auch nicht mehr. Aus den kleinen Fehlern konnte man doch recht viel mitnehmen :) Trotzdem haben die Ladys alles gut überstanden und haben einfach riesig viel Spaß gemacht.

Läuft soweit... EC langsam gesteigert 0.7 - 1.0 Zuerst runter auf 0.1 - 0.2 mit dest. Wasser dann mit calmag hoch auf 0.4 - 0.5 Dann mit 0.5 ml allinone und Startboost (ca 4 Tropfen per Liter auf gewünschten EC Wert hoch zus. 2-3 Tropfen Regulator Zur Zeit 0.8 ml/l Allinone und rest wie beschrieben ergibt EC 1.0 (ca. ab Tag 12 nach Keimung) Toppen muss ich auch Bald😬...Zelt ist nur 70x70x160 SF1000 auf 100% Anfang 2er Veg Woche ca. 74 cm Abstand...ca. 350 Mikromol

I wanted to title this weeks grow "How Big Are Your Balls? (root balls that is, lol)". I've been wanting to post pictures and video of the root balls for a while now, so today's the day! The temperature has been dropping here, so the plants are getting much less heat stress. In a couple of weeks the temperature should be down into the 60's and 70's during the day and all will be good.

Week 0: Germinated her the old-school way...two paper towels, between 2 saucers.. Fastbuds: I was so impressed with the packaging ..even though I was not able to get the original packaging (Discreet).. Week 1: just sprinkled H20 on her.. Midweek she sprouted. Week 2: Added some AgriSil K50 for her root development..She showed her first true leafs like yesterday..

Things seem to be on track. Humidity continues to be my biggest challenge - hoping to to make it to the finish line without any incidents of mould. 🙏 Started cutting back on the nutrients. I must say I'm happy she's responded so positively to everything I've thrown at her as I've been a bit more aggressive with the fertilizers than with the original plan I had set out to follow. Hoping to see buds fattening up more over the next two weeks. 🌲

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis Je regrette de ne pas avoir su mieux doser l'engrais car cela a créé une carence qui aura un impact sur le rendement final de la plante C'est vraiment dommage car elle sent vraiment bon et ses buds de couleur pourpre ont l'air vraiment de qualité Je pense que malgré cela elle va tout de même m'offrir un rendement plus que correct

All getting super frosty and stacking up

Big thanks to @James from the Royal Queen Seeds team for this stuff! Definitely one of my favorite strains.

They seem happy and starting to fill out,

Start of week 7 Day 51 was the hottest Day ever 😫

My good friend convinced me that trimming and training are paramount, so I've started with slowly defoliating the Creme de la Chems to try and get to lollipop status. They're just starting to flower, so I figured I could get away with a more aggressive approach. Because I failed to train these girls early, I'm stuck dealing with a little rain forest. What I've tried to do is trace each flower topped stalk up from the base, and trim away from the bottom up. 1/3 of the way up per day. I've now got a thick canopy, and I've been trying to just use leaf tucking and manual manipulation every few hours in order to keep the different height flowering sites in direct light. These ladies have really been thriving, and it's been such a joy to watch them grow! I like having two plants in one net pot letting them grow wild, but I think in my next grow I'll keep it to one per pot and train better from the start. As for the Super Orange Haze ... not as good. I attempted to pull the main branch over to train her to some empty space, but I was too aggressive and ended up popping her head off :(. First grow, first disaster. I took the head and stripped her/coated in clonex and pushed her into some potting soil just to see what would happen. There hasn't been enough foliage to really make me want to do any trimming, I've just tried to tie the stalks off to train them apart. I'm really sad about my mistake decapitation, but she seems to be doing well still. She's probably week 2 of flower based on others' journals. I changed the water midway through the week (which is when the videos were taken). I drained most of the water out, but roots prevented me from getting the last few gallons. When I refilled the res with RO, I measured the PPM at around 200. I have to assume that remaining nutrient was completely unbalanced leftovers, so feeding will have to just have to be experimental. My approach has been to give around 1:1 Gro vs Bloom and Micro every 2-3 days when I refill with RO. I want to build my PPM up to 1000, but slowly so that I can detect if I hit a ceiling first. It's hard to measure how much food is in the water based on PPM. CalMag is what drives it mostly, so I've been using CalMag as a sort of measuring stick. I keep the CalMag pegged to the Bloom food, but I know it's only good for initial dosing. I can't assume the plants are eating CalMag in the same proportion as anything else :(. If anyone has a line on cheap lab testing ... hit me up. I'd love to be able to test a few hundred samples at a time for NPK and trace so that I can tell (even if post facto) what was going on.

Everything is going well The big blackberry is in livingsoil so water & urb only Blackberry #2 is growing strong Smoothie looks great too

She was big but not nearly big enough needless to say we won't be growing her again

Only 3/4 sprouted so I’m going with that. I don’t have any extra seeds. I am very happy tho because my last grow 4 was a lot in my setup. I want to see how much I can train 3 plants and how much bigger I can get them. I also have to order seeds this run and get more soil. Very excited

Week 9/Semana 9!
